Publication number: 20230353647Abstract: An online system generates a cluster group and uses membership in the cluster group as an eligibility criteria for presenting a content item. The online system receives a request from a third party system to present the content item and an identification of a target action associated with the content item. The online system also receives information about users who performed a target action and users who performed related actions other than the target action on one or more webpages associated with the third party system. The online system forms a multitask neural network and uses the multitask neural network to train a cluster model based on the received information. The online system applies the cluster model to candidate users who have not performed the target action and determines whether to include a candidate user into the cluster group based on output of the cluster model.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 21, 2018Publication date: November 2, 2023Inventors: Jason Jiawei Liao, Divakar D.

Patent number: 11580153Abstract: An online system generates a cluster group and uses membership in the cluster group as an eligibility criteria for presenting a content item. The online system receives a request from a third party system to present the content item. The online system also receives identification information about users who have visited webpages associated with the third party system and descriptive information associated with the webpages. Based on the descriptive information, the online system extracts tags for the webpages and classifies the webpages into one or more categories that include a category associated with the content item.

Publication number: 20220093212Abstract: A fractional concentration of fetal relevant DNA in a mixture of DNA from a biological sample is determined based on amounts of DNA fragments of a particular size or range of sizes. DNA fragments may be sequenced to obtain sequence reads, and the sequence reads may be aligned to a reference genome to determine sizes of the DNA fragments. Calibration data points (e.g., as a calibration function) indicate a correspondence between values of a parameter providing a statistical measure of a size profile and the fractional concentration of the fetal DNA. For a given sample, a value of the parameter can be determined from DNA fragments of a particular size or range of sizes in a sample. A comparison of the value to the calibration data points can provide the estimate of the fractional concentration of the fetal DNA.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 5, 2021Publication date: March 24, 2022Inventors: Yuk Ming Dennis Lo, Wai Kwun Rossa Chiu, Kwan Chee Chan, Wenli Zheng, Peiyong Jiang, Jiawei Liao

Patent number: 11217330Abstract: A fractional concentration of clinically-relevant DNA in a mixture of DNA from a biological sample is determined based on amounts of DNA fragments at multiple sizes. For example, the fractional concentration of fetal DNA in maternal plasma or tumor DNA in a patient's plasma can be determined. The size of DNA fragments in a sample is shown to be correlated with a proportion of fetal DNA and a proportion of tumor DNA, respectively. Calibration data points (e.g., as a calibration function) indicate a correspondence between values of a size parameter and the fractional concentration of the clinically-relevant DNA. For a given sample, a first value of a size parameter can be determined from the sizes of DNA fragments in a sample. A comparison of the first value to the calibration data points can provide the estimate of the fractional concentration of the clinically-relevant DNA.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 2018Date of Patent: January 4, 2022Assignee: The Chinese University of Hong KongInventors: Yuk Ming Dennis Lo, Wai Kwun Rossa Chiu, Kwan Chee Chan, Wenli Zheng, Peiyong Jiang, Jiawei Liao

Publication number: 20210257053Abstract: A fractional concentration of tumor DNA in a plasma sample is estimated by analyzing a biological sample of an organism. One or more sequence reads obtained from a sequencing of the DNA fragment are received. The one or more sequence reads are aligned to a reference genome to obtain aligned locations for both ends of the DNA fragment. Using the aligned locations, a size of the DNA fragment is determined. For each size of a plurality of sizes, an amount of a set of the plurality of DNA fragments from the plasma sample corresponding to the size is determined. A first value of a first parameter is calculated based on the amounts of DNA fragments at multiple sizes. The first value is compared to a calibration value. A fractional concentration of tumor DNA in the plasma sample is estimated based on the comparison.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 6, 2021Publication date: August 19, 2021Inventors: Yuk Ming Dennis Lo, Wai Kwun Rossa Chiu, Kwan Chee Chan, Wenli Zheng, Peiyong Jiang, Jiawei Liao

Patent number: 10706442Abstract: An online system receives one or more aggregation rules associated with a third party system that determine online system users' eligibility for receiving content items provided by the third party system using the online system users' behavior. When an online system user performs actions related to content provided by the third party system via a client device, events describing the actions are generated and communicated from the client device to the online system. The online system evaluates a user's eligibility when a user performs an action by applying an aggregation rule to an event corresponding to the user's action and other events associated with the user corresponding to the user's previous actions. The online system may re-evaluate a user's eligibility at a later time if the user is determined to be ineligible. The online system provides content items to eligible users for presentation.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2017Date of Patent: July 7, 2020Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Shi Feng, Chuhan Yang, Mayank Kumar, Jason Jiawei Liao

Patent number: 10687105Abstract: An online system defines a new group of users of the online system for a content provider to use as an audience for its content. The online system generates the audience by first allowing the content provider to specify a subset of the users of the online system, along with a weight for each specified user. The online system then performs a lookalike expansion on the specified subset to obtain a larger group of users of the online system who are similar to the specified subset. This lookalike expansion is weighted using the weights provided for each of the members of the specified subset. Once the resulting expanded audience is generated, the online system performs a content selection process for content to present to users of the online system, where membership in the cluster group is used as an eligibility criteria in the content selection process.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2018Date of Patent: June 16, 2020Assignee: Facebook, Inc.Inventors: Jason Jiawei Liao, Divakar D.

Publication number: 20200063207Abstract: Whether a fetus has an aneuploidy associated with a first chromosome is detected using ratios of alleles detected in a maternal sample having a mixture of maternal and fetal DNA. DNA from the sample is enriched for target regions associated with polymorphic loci and then sequenced. Polymorphic loci (e.g., single nucleotide polymorphisms) in the target regions with fetal-specific alleles are identified on a first chromosome and on one or more reference chromosomes. A first ratio of the fetal-specific alleles and shared alleles is determined for the loci on the first chromosome. A second ratio of the fetal-specific alleles and shared alleles is determined for the loci on the reference chromosome(s). A third ratio of the first and second ratio can be compared to a cutoff to determine whether an aneuploidy is present, and whether the aneuploidy is maternally-derived or paternally-derived.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 30, 2019Publication date: February 27, 2020Inventors: Jiawei Liao, Kwan Chee Chan, Wai Kwun Rossa Chiu, Yuk Ming Dennis Lo
